What’s On

Banjo & Bovril is an annual Trad and Folk Music Festival that takes place at The Harbour Bar, Bray.

The Banjo & Bovril Festival is a revival of an old tradition Paul O’Toole Senior pioneered years ago; when short winter days were ended in the bar with a bit of banjo playing, some steaming cups of hot Bovril and a plateful of cheese and crackers. Over the past five years, the festival has welcomed Mick Flannery, The Eskies, Ye Vegabonds, Mundy, Old Hannah, David Keenan, Paddy Casey, Bunoscionn, Caoimhín Ó Raghallaigh and Crooked Jack to name a few.

Bray Area Partnership is starting a new programme of free conversational English classes in Kilcoole Community Centre starting this Monday, 9th November from 7pm.

Fáilte Isteach is a national Third Age Ireland programme that provides conversational English language classes in a friendly café atmosphere, with volunteer tutors. The benefits for learners and tutors alike include enhanced English language and teaching skills and friendships forged between neighbours from different backgrounds and cultures.

This initiative builds on two successful Fáilte Isteach English language projects the Partnership runs in Bray – involving more than 100 learners and 24 volunteer tutors.

The new classes in Kilcoole are open to anybody living in Greystones, Kilcoole, Newcastle or Delgany. To find out more see www.brayareapartnership.ie or call Lorna on 01 286 8266.
